Calving

Calving

Ever since I was born I've been living on a farm. From November to February we start making silage for the farm. From August to May it is milking season. From August to September it is calving season, when its calving season we get baby cows (calfs) and feed them, so some can go to a different farm or we keep them so they can grow up and eat grass. 

Right now it's August (calving season) so I help mum everyday to feed the calves. we start by getting some milk then the calves change pens after there feed every morning. After we have too much calfs we take a fence away so there are lots of little pens and a giant big pen. If there are to much calves we can't feed them in that pen we drive a really huge feeder and put it in the pen. When all the calves are fed we wash the feeders. We only wash the feeders in the mornings not the afternoons. 

Don't forget to drink milk everyday because Milk Is good for your bones.
